Demons and Fallen Angels

B-A-C · Sep 20, 2018

Another wrinkle here...

Of course demons inhabited or possessed people in the Bible. They can't possess a Christian, but they can "oppress" us.
Many times Jesus and the disciples cast demons out of people. The Bible says we (as believers) are given authority over demons (in Jesus name).
Demons even inhabited swine, (before they drown the swine),

All of which is to say... do demons even need bodies, if they can inhabit other people (or animals).
As far as I know (I haven't studied this as much yet), there is no place in the Bible where an angel "inhabited" or possessed someone.

After a little more research, possibly this happened in Luke 22:3; and John 13:27;

Then again, this could be figurative language, for example Jesus calls Peter "Satan" in Matt 16:23; and Mark 8:33;

Not because Peter is Satan, but because the thoughts Peters was telling Jesus, originated from Satan. (Jesus knows the difference).

Luk 22:3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

Eph 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

The word, "sealed" means "close up and make fast, to secure" Demons can not get into a person who has been sealed by the Holy Spirit.

You're right Curtis...Demons cannot get into that spirit that the Holy spirit has sealed, but a demon CAN get into the body or soul.

Do you have scripture that proves a born again Spirit filled Christian can have a demon?
